Article in Biomedical papers of the Medical Faculty of the University Palacky, Olomouc, Czechoslovakia, 2026. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Not yet cited in PubMed.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
purposeTo report the approach, technical success, safety, and short-term outcomes of thoracic duct stenting for treating chylothorax and chylous ascites in a patient with Yellow Nail Syndrome. CASE REPORT: A 57-year-old male with Yellow Nail Syndrome, characterized by yellow thickened nails, lymphedema, and respiratory abnormalities, required repeated thoracocenteses for chylothorax. A thoracic duct intervention involving percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and balloon-expandable stent implantation via retrograde access was performed. Procedure characteristics, clinical success, complications, and follow-up were recorded.
conclusionsThoracic duct stenting was a safe and technically successful procedure. After the procedure, the patient was relieved of symptoms. This technique could be considered for patients with recurrent chylothorax and chylous ascites, including those with Yellow Nail Syndrome. Further research is required to validate these findings.
